You should have to give before you can take, if you choose to go for a small tag there should be options in the stats to do this to some extent, but it should also be options for bigger alliance to not be roided by a 30 man 3 fleeting PLing tag.
That there are 2 millions apart from the #1 to #6 alliance is basicly the Whole point in what im aiming at, there is not the tactics or activity that matters, so far atleast.
RainbowS as a alliance would love to continue recruiting and training new players, and i did contact appocomaster about this last round, and he said the tags limits was to be increased.
You could say that there are still free space in p3ng, faceless and black-flag, but they are all alliances known to previously not having open recruitment.
When i complain about the game being stagnating is due to #1, #2 and often #3 being Allied to each other. Get a grip  |
If there is a grip that needs to be got, its not by Influence.
You moan about the same things on here and peddle out the same ideas that you have proposed and have been rejected multiple times.
Alliance wise the game is working well now, there is a nice mixture of full tags and smaller tags. If the small tags wanted to compete they would be a bigger tag, its called progression. The better you perform the more people want to be part of it.
Regarding the yet again OP who moaned about the stats, they are the same stats for everyone. They arent unfair or biased or weighted towards anyone in particular, the only thing that has made them awful for you is incompetence when picking what race you and your alliance would be.
When the stats are too defensive we get shouts of 'Simtarion' now they arent defensive people moan about 'Roidswaptarion'. You cannot have it both ways, the day the stats are actually balanced (never with 5 races) the game will not be worth playing.
Over 60% of the playerbase is from Europe and therefore most of them dont DC. Its not suitable for them to be up most the night making calcs and spam calling/texting people to send ships. This is now a job left to a few overly keen Europeans (hi agar3s) and Americans/Australians and the odd Asian.
You will never change the way and time people attack unless you hardcode it into the game. The whole point is to attack people and take their roids so people will naturally want to attack when their victim (or most of his alliance) is asleep.
These stats allow you to forget the stresses of defending and just enjoy the attacking element of the game, making it less time intensive and a little bit crazy. And still you moan.
As a final point a lot has been made of how the only viable defence ships are +1 on defence (ie Pegs against Xan Fi). If your so displeased with the lack of activity now required and want the game to be more time intensive and work hard to cover your incomming then you would be letting ingalaxy deal with first waves and cover the rest of your incs with prelaunch defence. But no you havent even entertained this idea because it requires activity and despite what you say 90% of the time incommings show on your planet you will be snoring away, regardless of whether you saw on a j scan before bed or not. Barely anyone has the drive to run proper defence anymore and these stats are allowing you to live that dream with no penance.
You should be praising them, not bemoaning them.
